ROME AND THE X. OF L.

Rome has spoken and the Cause
of Labor as represented by the X
of Il. is sustained, thanks to the cleal
head of Cardinal Gibbons, and his
able and fearless pen. The Church
is safe to rest upon his broad Amer
lean shoulders, and those whom he
represents can rely with security
upon his Judgment. Would that we
could give his letter of defence in
full. The just demands of labor and
the power Of the people are recog
nized as divine rights. There Is an
admitted contest between labor and
The money powers of the WORLD

weak and the strong,-and Religion

der, is bound to aid the oppressed
The Church sees and acknowledges
that there is mighty revolution al
work. revolution of equal rights
justice and liberty for the masses
against the united forces of corrupt
legislation, abuse of wealth and pow

the people, but by the influence O.
corporations, rings, pools, corners
and monopolies. America leads this
revolution in thought and action
and tyranny is trembling in it,
strongholds.
Recreant indeed would the Church
be to her most sacred trusts, were
she to turn against her children il
the day of their need. There never
was a time when the voice of tn,
people was more potent for goot
than now, or when its strength wal
more universally realized. In thu
future there will be true govern
ment of the people and FOR TIL
PEOPLE, and in that day all mel
will be the nearer equal in thos'
things guaranteed to all alike by tn,
divine and the human law.
1t becomes the Church to be pru
dent and cautious, and while sane
tioning the labor cause she warn,

BRASS CHEEK AND CAST IRON FEEL
INGs After a citizen has lived upright
ly in a town, conducted his affairs open
ly and settled up his business publicly.
and changed his place of abode in broad
daylight, it is about as little and mean a
resort of spite as can we'll be conceived,
for few traducers to question his char
acter and reputation when his back is
turned. But as chance happens he
walks among us again, is greeted by
many, and not man proceeds against
him except in assurance and sympathy.
His traducers bear the Cainish marks of
moral and physical cowardice in his
presence. that cheek of brass and feel
ings OF cast iron cannot conceal. The
good name of people and town must
suffer where there is no redress except
through the slow but sure awakening of
public opinion. Hasten the day of Mar

JEFFERSON DIVIDED.

There are grave charges going the
rounds of the press in connection
with the late Jefferson County cleo
ton. 1t seems some of the best
Democrats are disguised with the
party management. The root of the
evil is the Offices; they are not re-
garded as public trusts by many,
but as political reward (awards) for
serving the party. The good men
who do como to the front for a
purer administration of county af-
fairs, and for healthier representa-
ton OF the peoples interests, excite
the envy and incur the opposition Of
the office-seeking element. 1t is the
duty OF the people to rise above party
jealousies and chickering's and to join
hands at the polls for what seems to
them best for the county at large.
Any election carried by money,
whiskey or intimidation, whether by
Republicans or Democrats, does the
party more harm than good, and is
a disgrace to all concerned in it.
Some years ago the leaders of both
parties in Berkeley agreed together
to prevent as far as possible any
illegal use or method by any means
in the election pending, and the re-
suit was few complaints on either
side. Since then there have been
grave accusations ON both sides, that
should serve as warning in the
future. An honest defeat is more
glorious than a dishonest victory.
fla government of the people means
any thing, it is an honest ballot aud
a fair count. 1t is a suspicious sign
to see too many forms and faces
after an election that do not fit
their surroundings. 1t may be a
smart thing for one party to send a
load of provisions q into the back
woods districts and the other party
to drug the driver and steal the fire,
but it is a degrading traffic of soul
and body. 1t reminds us of two
christian countries at war over colo
nizing and outstanding savage
land. A few victors enjoy the spoils
of war, after savage and christian
have been murdered together. The
smoke is all we see, but where there
is smoke there is fire. Politically,
Berkeley county is very evenly
divided and the good results of it
are seen on every hand. Berkeley
is poorer than Jefferson in every
way, yet she is better off in every
way. A comparison with our party
enslaved neighbor would be odious.
The newspapers and the politicians,
who live upon the fruits of contend
ing factions, may deny it, but the
honest taxpayer feels its truth to the
quick.
We have u few blind partisans
among ourselves,-a few pre.sancti-
fed Observation-Disclosures
devil zealots, who roll their eyes in
ecstatic pity and scorn at q poor
party regenade, though he stands
free as the towering oak on Loudon
Heights above them. Slaves of
whatever party they may be, they
kiss their letters and raising their
eyes to Heaven, thank God that
they are not so low and debased as
is that poor (re) publican standing
far off in the shadow of his own
originality. Moved by false pity
they seize the horns of the altar with
both hands and pray the good Lord
for deliverance. If the lost soul
outside their fanaticism is so from

some hope for him-On his death-bed

Another train on the opposite track
struck the unfortunate man, aud once
more he was hurled upon the pilot,
and lay there until New Rochelle
was again reached, when the body
rolled off, and the trunk fell under
the wheels a second time. When
the train moved of, it was seen that
only the headless trunk remained
after the terrible bufEeting it had re-
ceived. No one has been able as
yet to tell who the man was.

The reduction of internal revenue
and the taking off ofrevenue stamps
from Proprietary Medicines, no
doubt has largely benefited the con-
sumers, as well as relieving the bur
den Of home manufacturers. Es-
pecially is this the case with GREEN'S
August Fower and Boschee's German
Syrup, as the reduction Of thirty-six
cents per dozen, has been added to
increase the size of the bottles con-
tanning these remedies, thereby CIV
ing one.fifth more medicine in the
rs cent size. The august Fbacer for
Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint,
and the German Syrup for cough and
